Hi guys,

I am very serious about my on-site optimization and found out that images from the Instagram plugin are pretty heavy for such a small size: 100-110kb. Which could easily go down to 10-20kb. How could I optimize them when they are being dynamically extracted from Instagram. Could you help me with this? Basically I think this is something that should be improved.

Thanks
Seb

Hello, i have the same issue and this is not helping because theyre using other widgets. And we can’t set 960 pixel wide feed with 3 columns in your instagramm footer in order to resolve the problem.

Hi,

Can’t find any solutions online unfortunately, I searched for a while. You could search for different solutions or consider using plugins to display Instagram images, maybe some plugins have options to choose from multiple sizes.
Check some of these for example, and try some free plugins
